Local personal data archive in the Memora Keep client on Windows

Why it matters

The problems this solves

How this feature helps you keep and use your phone data.

  • Data spread across folders with no index

    The archive organizes supported backup contents so you can browse chats, media and other records in one place.

  • A folder that could be anything

    Without an index, a directory of files gives no clue what it holds or where it came from. Storage by type and by device keeps that meaning visible.

  • Dependence on a service staying alive

    Data held by a third party depends on that party continuing to exist. A local archive works from disk without an account or a subscription.

How it works

How to use it

  1. 1

    Write the raw backup

    The original backup is kept intact on disk under a directory for the device it came from.

  2. 2

    Parse into the archive

    Imported records are stored in a local database, with media organized into folders by type.

  3. 3

    Keep it consistent

    Each import records its results. Repeated WhatsApp messages are checked for duplicates as they are added to the archive.
